Hypnosis and pain on Chris Evan’s drive time radio 2

Stuart Mconie who is looking after Chris Evan’s slot on radio 2’s drive time; was looking at hypnosis and pain relief yesterday (June 4th).

Let me answer a few questions that come up time and again.

Can everyone go into hypnosis? well yes. But there are a few people for whom it may be difficult. Some who have taken lots of drugs, or who are on the autistic scale may find it harder. For the rest of us practice makes perfect. Remember you are just harnessing and using a perfectly natural function of your brain.

Who can benefit? We all can benefit from relaxing deeply, our immune system and digestion can work unhindered by the robust voice of stress when in a hypnotic state. Natural pain killers, endorphins are also produced when relaxing. So our own pain killing chemicals, extra energy and a clear mind are just some of the benefits of hypnosis; but changing our reality is the second part of the equation when looking at pain control with hypnosis.
